How To Enjoy This Smoothie
Smoothies are a great way to get a ton of nutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants at one time. They are nutritional powerhouses! Due to their high nutrient count, smoothies can sometimes lead to bloating or discomfort.
The best way to enjoy this smoothie is to drink it slowly. While this smoothie is made with anti-inflammatory ingredients, it is best enjoyed when drank slowly.
Low FODMAP & Whole30
This smoothie is both low FODMAP and Whole30 approved. Since each of these ingredients is low FODMAP, this smoothie is therefore low FODMAP. Both blueberries and blackberries are considered safe low FODMAP fruits.
Some nuts and seeds are allowed on low FODMAP. Eat almonds in small amounts. Additionally, other low FODMAP nuts and seeds include pecans, walnuts, peanuts and macadamia nuts.
Low FODMAP fruits include oranges, pineapple, strawberries and kiwi. Blueberries and blackberries are acceptable in smaller quantities.
While this smoothie is completely Whole30 approved, smoothies are often discouraged while on Whole30. To make this more of a Whole30 complete meal, pair it with a plated fat (like avocado) and protein (like bacon, sausage or eggs).

15 Comments on “Low FODMAP Blueberry Smoothie (Whole30, Paleo)”
Black berries are only low at 1 small berry per Monash University the developers and head researchers of the low Fodmap diet. This is very irresponsible
The ingredients are low FODMAP, but the amounts are not.
This is not low FODMAP. Please change the title! Wish I could eat it, though.
In what world is 1/2 cup of blackberries low FODMAP? This recipe needs to be renamed or removed.
This smoothie is NOT low fodmap. Per Monash, Blackberries are low fodmap at a serving of 1 small berry.
Please rename the post as this is incorrect information.
